What could be more British than watching wheeler dealer Mick Carter pouring Prince Charles a glass of lukewarm Cava in the rain?

What could be more British than watching wheeler dealer Mick Carter pouring Prince Charles a glass of lukewarm Cava in the rain? In reality, the heir apparent was shown around the set by Sue Nicholls who (still) plays Audrey Roberts on a visit to the old Granada Studios in Manchester – later, producers asked Kensington Palace for permission to use the photos of his visit in the live broadcast as part of a news bulletin. They’ve been around for most of our lives and tell relatable, important stories with wit and pathos; they’re a near-daily source of laughter and drama. In the 70 years since her coronation, the Royal Family have embraced and celebrated the country’s soaps – it’s made them more relatable, good-humored, in touch with what is important to us as a nation (even if that is Janine Butcher pushing her husband Barry off a cliff). One actor who was there for both occasions was William Roach, who plays Ken Barlow, and has been a regular on the series since its first ever episode. It may seem like a strange way to celebrate 70 years of the Queen’s reign – is EastEnders, a TV drama that popularised the (iconic) phrase “I didn’t just become a little bit of a slag, I became a total slag” really the place to celebrate such a momentous, once-in-a-lifetime occasion?

EastEnders review: Prince Charles and Camilla have enough ... (The Independent)

Charles and Camilla have had quite a few dramatic storylines of their own over the years.

Charles and Camilla do seem to enjoy playing themselves, though I reckon that Charles geezer could do with toning down his character’s arrayed mannerisms a bit. Of course, Charles and Camilla have had quite a few dramatic storylines of their own over the years. The royals’ role is to meet real people, but these aren’t real people and I bet neither is Fowler’s “organic” fruit’n’veg (presumably soon to be sold in good old pounds and ounces). There were some quite heavy-handed references to royal causes – such as the Princes Trust, planting trees and domestic violence– crowbarred into the script, presumably as the quid pro quo for the visit. During the Blitz, when Buckingham Palace was bombed by the Luftwaffe, King George and Queen Elizabeth (Charles’ grandparents) were sort of grateful for it, because they were “able to look the East End in the face”. With their back stories, Charles and Camilla could stride onto any television drama set in the world and not be embarrassed. By the look of their broad grins (tempered slightly by a certain nervousness in demeanour), it’s a great treat for some of the stars of one of Britain’s longest running soaps – Charles “The Prince” Windsor and “The Duchess” Camilla – to meet actual television royalty. The gor-blimeyness is probably a bit overdone (the premise being that the good folk of Albert Square were expecting celebrity lookalikes fans than your actual royals) but it’s all very sweet, like televisual Platinum Pudding. Walford hasn’t been this excited since King William of Watts served his own divorce papers on the saintly Queen Angie, Duchess of Frizz, some decades ago.
